After the arrest of Jonathan Majors for assaulting his girlfriend, it did not take long for other allegations against Jonathan Majors to surface. Social media was awash with rumors about Majors’ past behavior dating all the way back to his days as an acting student at Yale. Though his lawyers have been working double-time to quell these rumors, discredit his accusers, and flood the zone with misinformation, the other shoe has now dropped, as Rolling Stone has reported on Majors’ extensive history of abuse and misbehavior on sets and with past romantic partners.
Rolling Stone spoke with 40 people — all of whom insisted on anonymity for fear of repercussion (fair given the way his lawyers have smeared the reputation of his ex-girlfriend) — and they described him as a “complicated, unpredictable, and sometimes violent man.” He has been involved in physical altercations at both Yale and on TV and movie sets, where he also allegedly mistreated crew members.
Most seriously, more than a dozen sources collectively claim to Rolling Stone that Majors allegedly abused two romantic partners — one physically, both of them emotionally. “It was pervasively known that he was [a good actor], and that he also would terrorize the people that he had dated,” one of those sources says. Majors allegedly strangled one woman he was dating, and was mentally and emotionally abusive with her, nine of those sources claim. The second woman allegedly told friends that her relationship with Majors was “emotional torture.”
Sources say he manipulated and controlled his partners, and wanted them to be “submissive to him, demanding he be in charge of everything from what they ate to who the partner could interact with.”
Through his attorneys, Majors “vehemently” denies all allegations, and even supplied letters to Rolling Stone from six past partners. However, three of those past partners said they never gave Majors permission to release those statements, one didn’t respond, and another said the statement was “pre-written, not truthful, and that she had never approved of its release.” Only one woman stood by their statement, Majors’ high-school girlfriend.
The trial for Majors’ domestic abuse charges is set for August 3rd.
